This does require you to have threshold. Hunting Grounds permits you to put a creature into play each time an opponent plays a spell, so each time, play Mystic Snake, who then counters that spell when it enters play. Cowardice and Nomad allow you to continually bounce the snake so you\'ll be ready for all of your opponents spells. Best part is, its infinite, and it requires no mana once the cards are out.

You might as well replace the snake with Draining Whelk.

Since Draining Whelk would get bounced continuously, the counters on it would keep falling off so its not that much of an improvement. Not to mention, Mystic Snake is WAY cooler than Draining Whelk.

In that case keep the snake and just add Draining Whelk for a beatstick.

replace with image crafter then, but the nomads do target redirect one damage to target creature you control with the errata

They do target though, the text on gatherer reads "The next 1 damage that would be dealt to Nomads en-Kor this turn is dealt to TARGET creature you control instead." I hate that text keeps getting changed though, I can't tell you how many times its messed me up in games.

Infinite counters is pretty smooth.
